Canyons in and around Zion
Heading to Zion in early May and have a pretty good idea of what we will do based on snow melt, ice and other factors that early in the year. From what I have already gathered I think we will do do Spry, Fat Mans, Keyhole and Pine Creek as of right now and was wondering about other canyons in Zion that would be good at this time of year and anything that is outside of the park but close by being that we'll be based in Springdale. Is Red Cave doable in early May or dependent on snow melt, ice, etc?
Thanks!

Red Cave is doable year-round. In May expect the water in the slot to be CoLd! The road to the slot is sand so take that into consideration when planning your trip. Since you are on the Springdale side there is Boltergiest and Yankee that you could do. They are not overly spectacular, but they are fun.

I don't think we ever did write up Boltergiest, but Shane or Tom would have the info on their sites.
